Cathy Segal-Garcia’s Noontime Hang, Features CSG, MON DAVID, L. AVIVA DIAMOND & DOLORES SCOZZESI (My 652nd day's guests!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This week, December 7th, for brunch, this group of special and creative humans will put on a musical immersive show on inspiring Humanity to come together. The Show will be at Birds Of A Feather Jazz Lounge, in downtown L.A. www.birdsofafeatherjazzlounge.com
HUMAN CONNECTION MUSIC’s “TAPESTRY” are collaborators Cathy Segal-Garica, Dolores Scozzesi, L.Aviva Diamond, and Mon David!
“Musician’s singer” Cathy Segal-Garcia is a vocalist of “real music integrity” poignantly reports reviewer from the Critical Jazz publication.
A student from the ’70’s at Boston’s famous jazz school, Berklee, her deep connection to rhythm and organic voice bring a nakedness to her communication. Her repertoire includes original compositions and modern interpretations of standards and jazz musicians’ compositions.
She’s been a tireless supporter and producer of the L.A. jazz scene for years, and has recorded and performed with jazz hero’s consistently throughout her career.
She’s traveled all over the world, performing, recording, and teaching…and has a special relationship with Japan, where she’s traveled consistently over 20 years.
Cathy has 18 CDs of her own and presently is working on 2 more.
Also, presently, since the beginning of the pandemic, she’s interviewed 550 jazz musicians on her Noontime Hang show, on Facebook and Youtube, from 12 noon to 2:00.

Mon David remains one of the most inventive and creative singers on the L.A. scene and performs with deep connection to his material.
“The Filipino singer Mon David is a male jazz vocalist with a distinctly original style of his own – a remarkable voice able to leap octaves in a single bound combined with a world class scat singing style.”
Mon leads with moral convictions, with a sustained passion for his craft, with a signature of superior musicality: one that is marked by pitch perfect sounds, ability to harmonize with a group, controls his voice properly, stable at intonation and pitches, yet humble to say that jazz is a dynamic, long-term process: “You have to live Jazz for so long that it becomes you.”
“Music is a connector of hearts,” says Mon, “each encounter is about affirming the strengths of family members and co-artists.” He’s a consummate musician, dedicated and committed to art, quality and communication. His family and friends are the obvious result of him. https://www.mondavid.info/
Dolores Scozzesi is a jazz singer with a smoky, powerful voice and a sensual stage persona who channels her deep passion for the music into every song. Her voice swoops and soars as her emotions dictate—holding a note here, repeating a single word there—as she follows her heart to find her truth.
Scozzesi loves percussive sounds that usually drive her style, as she explains, “because I like to stretch myself to do something different and interesting.”

L. Aviva Diamond is a vocalist and artist/photographer.
She is a heart-centered singer who brings her soul to every note and has a deeply sensitive musical connection to the songs, the musicians, and the audience.
Her art and photography encompass both the outer world of street and nature photography and inner perceptions of a cosmos consisting of energy, light and movement. Some bodies of work are straight depictions of the human condition. Others are pure appreciation of birds and landscapes. And much of her work is a distillation of meditations exploring cosmic connections - delving into the nature of water and light, finding wonder and mystery in reflections and ripples - seeing the universe in a wave or the interconnectedness of a wet leaf and the night sky.
